NO. 59
A FRUITLESS SESSION
Kentucky's Legislature Fails
to Elect a Senator.
THE LAST BALLOT TAKEX TODAY
Both Republicans and Democrats lie
fused to Vote Assembly All
' jotirned Bine Ile.
Fbankfpet, Ky., March 19. When
the UBual ballot was taken for United
States eenator todny, the last day of the
session, there was no election.
When the clerk called the roll the De
mocrats refused to vote. The ballot was
then ordered for United States senator.
Neither the Democrats nor the Republi
cans voted, and the joint assembly then
adjourned bine die.
In the house Mr. Barnett offered a re
solution indorsing the action of the gov
ernor in calling out the militia.
Howard moved the previous question.
Almost every Democrat in the houee
was demanding to be heard. The speak
er ruled the previous queetion ordered,
and no speeches were in order. At least
half a dozen Democrats were speaking
in the gieatest confusion; "Bayonet
rule," "Carpet-baggers," "Military,"
"Anarchy," "Cowardice," and such epi
thets being thrown at the Republicans.
The resolution was adopted by an aye
and no vote, 51 to 44.
Colonel E. H. Gaither met Jack Chinn
near the Capitol hotel today and said :
"How are you Jack?"
Chinn replied: "G dd n you, don't
you speak to me," and made a move
ment for his hip pocket.
Before a weapon could be drawn Gen.
Hardin pushed in between the two men
and succeeded in preventing a fight.
Colonel Gaither said to Chinn : "I am
ready for you any time, sir. It don't
matter whether you speak to me or not."
W. A. Danlap, to whom was given
Kaufman's Geat in the house, arrived
from Lexington today. When asked
whether he would vote in the joint as
sembly, Dunlap said : "1 will not. I
am here on other business." .
A meeting of Blackburn Democrats is
to be held tonight, which will be the
opening of the free-silver campaign in
Kentucky.
Progress of tno Cuban Resolutions.
Washington, March 17. In the sen
ate today Elkins' resolution directing the
committee of foreign relations to report
the etatus of the Cuban war, went over
until tomorrow, after a conference be
tween Elkins and Sherman.
Mitchell complained that the Cuban
resolutions were making no headway
and said if the Cuban question could not
be disposed of in a reasonable time he
must insist on going on with the Dupont
election contest.
Sherman responded that he Baw no
reason why the Cuban question could
not be disposed of in a day or so, but he
did not desire to cut off the speeches.
Morgan then continued his speech in
support of the resolutions.
A WAR OF CONQUEST.
Bog-land's Intentions Regarding Central
Africa.
New York, March 17. A dispatch to
the World from London says :
The ministerial statement and dis
cussion in the house of commons fully
establishes that The British advance
upon the Soudan denotes the initiative
of a policy by the British government
which may be fraught with moBt far
reaching and possibly disastrous con
sequences. Mr. A. J. Balfour; speaking for the
cabinet, practically admitted that Don
gola would probably not be the destina
tion, but only the halting place of the
Anglo-Egyptian forces. His allusions to
the desirability of bringing British rule
Highest of all in Leavening Power.
LA VV
into the Soudan were interpreted as in
dicating that the British government is
bent upon a war, not of defense, but of
conquest of that whole section.
Sir Charles Dilke made a profound im
pression by his able and weighty ex
position of the dangers and complica
tions, not only in Central Africa, but in
Europe,' which would be entailed by
such a policy. The reception of his
speech shows that he bus now largely
regained the influence he lost when
driven from public life 10 years ago.
The liberals will oppose the Sondan
campaign and they expect that it will
make the government unpopular in the
country, and its perils are pnly too ap
parent, while the advantages, even if
successful, are nebulous in the highest
degree. Unless popular outcry stays
Salisbury's hand, it may well happen
that the long-expected casus belli, which
is to bring about the general European
cataclysm, may be" provided, not by
trouble at Constantinople or in the
Balkans, or the far East, but by clash
ing of French, Germans and British In
terests in Africa, especially in the race
now begun in good earnest for the pos
session of the unappropriated portion of
the Valley of the Upper Nile.
Getting Over Tbelr Scare.
New Yoek, March 17. A dispatch to
the Herald from Madrid says :
All Spanish newspapers are unani
mously recognizing the reaction against
jingoism which has taken place in the
United States senate. It is now felt
that all danger of hostilities is over, un
less something unforeseen occurs.
The recent war scare has given a strik
ing impetus to the war and marine de
partments. It is generally recognized
that the recent disturbances were, to a
large extent, fanued by the discontented
Republican element. The feeling in
Barcelona was stronger simply because
the Catalans are Republicans, and,
therefore, opposed to the present gov
ernment. '
The Abyssinian War.
Rome, March 17. In the chamber of
deputies today the new premier, Mar
quis di'Rudini, announced that the gov
ernment would continue hostilities in
Abyssinia until peace could be concluded
on honorable terms agreeable to Italy.
The announcement was received with
cheers, and a credit of 140,000,000 lire
for expenses of the campaign in Africa
was unanimously voted.
When the news came to be known the
populace cheered heartily for the gov
ernment and for the Italian soldiery.

dation of the disease, and giving the
